Re: Effectively navigating through edit fields on iPhone with Bluetooth keyboards
Hello Ricardo, Were what you wrote truly the case. What you wrote presupposes that one can easily invoke VO commands on one's particular keyboard. The keyboard which, regrettably, I purchased did not have a dedicated Option Key, so for me, invoking VO commands has never been easy. From now on, and before purchasing any new keyboard, I will make sure that the Command, Option and Control keys are readily accessible and that all three of these keys can be comfortably pressed simultaneously. We live and learn. Best regards, Mike On 27,Jan,2012, at 10:44 PM, Ricardo Walker wrote: Hi, These don't apply to any one keyboard. They are universal commands.

Re: Audacity or amadeus pro?
Hi Erik. Thx ill try and let you know how it goes. Ewoud. Op 28 jan. 2012 om 04:45 heeft Eric Caron ecar...@comcast.net het volgende geschreven: Hi Ewoud, There is a lite version and full version of Amadeus Pro in the App store. I would recommend going with the Full version. As you develop your skills you will want more of the functions. I found Amadeus Pro to be a solid reliable program and it was easier to use then Audacity on either the Mac or PC platform. Both programs are good but Amadeus Pro is much easier to use with Voice Over, the functions such as labeling tracks is much easier, and more of the advanced functions are accessible. I hope this recommendation helps. Eric Caron On Jan 26, 2012, at 12:36 AM, Ewoud wrote: Its in the appstore.

Re: good news for Drop box users!!
Hi, This is a good way to get voiceover to announce 3rd party app icons in the status menu. But, the dropbox preferences window is still inaccessible for me. I get the usual, dropbox has no windows although I can see the window on my screen.

I have some good news for those of y'all wondering when Drop Box would improve their accessibility. Under Lion, it is actually possible now to fully access the Drop box prefs menu and windows. Here's what you need to do. 1. In the Voice Over Utilities, make sure you set your mouse to announce when ever it enters a new window. 2. Now, press control+F8 or other wise access the universal prefs window. 3. Now, you want to rout the mouse to the Universal prefs window by using VO+command+F5. 4. Now, move the mouse directly in a straight line leftward until you hear, Entering Drop Box. Click right there. 5. Now, arrow down till you hear preferences. Press return here. HTH.

Re: google imap issue in mail app
Yuma, I agree there are issues with Gmail's implementation of imap or just something with Google in general. I have also seen that all my messages are retained; however, I was lead to believe the messages are deleted after 30 days if you do nothing. I'm not entirely sure about that either. I have also seen strange cases where some messages that are a part of an entire thread are not kept with the thread. THis seems to occur with certain e-mail lists, so not sure if this is a specific Gmail issue or not. Yep, odd stuff going on.

Re: Lion Server
Yuma, Thanks for the info.

Oh on a completely different note, have you ever done business with a Certificate Authority and if so which? I was looking at SSL certs and seems you can either do self signing or pay some amount to have one certified.

Re: about the workgroup manager app message for Tim
Tim, THanks for sharing and this is absolutely ridiculous that you have to jump through such hoops. I know you complained, but I'm going to complain as well. After all this is probably one of the more accessible commercial server packages available. I can't speak to windows server products. Thanks, On Jan 28, 2012, at 2:38 AM, TIM KILBURN wrote: Hi Yuma/Scott, 1. For adding Users to Groups in WGM, it works in either direction. That is, adding the users to the Group or adding Group membership to the specific user. In each situation, use the SL drag and drop method and things work properly, I haven't had much success with the Lion method in WGM. I usually do it from the Group prospective when adding users to a Group as I find it easier to manage. Here's my best recollection as I'm out of town right now and doing this from memory. • Select the Groups tab. • Select the Members tab. • Interact with the Groups table and select the Group you wish to add members to. • check the Add button. This should open the Users Drawer for you.. The Users Drawer appears way up by the Toolbar so I usually just press VO-home to get me quickly to the Toolbar then VO-right to the Drawer. • Interact with the Drawer. • Interact with the Table and navigate to the user you wish to add. • Turn off cursor tracking and mouse down on the user to pick it up. • Stop Interacting with the Table, as well as the Drawer and navigate to the membership Table. • Interact with it then mouse up to drop the User there. If you have multiple users to do this to, just use whatever multiple selection method works in your situation, contiguous or non-contiguous selecting. 2. For accessing the User or Group Preferences in WGM, I first had to figure out the following placement of the various Preference items. I put this list into a TextEdit file in case I forget. They are set up in rows of three in this manner: Applications - Classic - Dock Finder - Login - Media Access Mobility - Network - Parental Printing - Software Updates - System Preferences Universal Access Each item brings up an accessible pane for setting User/Group/Computer preferences. The problem is that these are not visible to VO at all, nor can you use HotSpots to locate them. So I've just used mouse keys instead. There may be another way but I got so used to using mouse keys that I'm stuck with it so far. Here's what I do. • Select Preferences in the toolbar. • Select the Users, Groups or Machines tab depending on what I wish to control. • Select the User or Group from the Table. • Stop Interacting with the Table and VO-left where it says something about Select one or more Accounts • I then press VO-cmd-f5 to make sure my mouse is where the VO-cursor just read. • Press the Option key five times to turn mouse keys on. (You set this up in the Universal Access pane of System Prefs). • Press the 2 key on the number pad 60 times to go down to the first row, 125 for the second, 190 for the third and 250 for the fourth. This will land you on the middle item of the row of three and, yes, I lose count sometimes and have to start over. That's probably why I've complained to Apple about it to no avail. You don't have to be exact but if you go too far down, you'll end up in the next row and have to start over anyway. • If you want the first item, like Applications, move left 140 times with the 4 key on the numPad or if you wish the right most item in the row, use the 6 key 140 times to land on it. • When you suspect that you're on the correct item, just press the 5 key for the mouse press. Voila, all the inaccessible stuff now becomes accessible. You can set which apps are allowed, which printers are available, what's on the users Dock, how they access Software Updates, restrict the Internet and lots of other things. You can always have control, sometimes (which means set it up the first time then let them do whatever afterwards), or never control that preference. If you really want to dig deep, you can play with MCX Preference Manifests in the Details tab of WGM. This sort of detail allows you to specifically control the state of specific preference items like homepage in Safari, whether Word Auto-Saves and much more. Hope this is clear. If I've messed up at all, let me know and I'll look at WGM when I get home after this weekend and fix the steps I may have missed. Otherwise, have fun but be careful, you do have the power to mess things up. Later..

Re: Lion Server
Hey Yuma, I have not had any problems with the Server app crashing yet. I did find a really weird problem when trying to edit the host name of my machine and setup the interface. Trying to click apply caused that button and the cancel button to go dim and I could not do a damned thing. Server did not crash, but it sure as hell got stuck and had to be force quit. So, hopefully they will improve things. I ended up calling APple about the problem and they spent a really long time trying to figure out the problem and eventually decided they did not know. However, they helped fix the problem in the end. I have to give them credit, they really do try to help to the best of their ability and they actually know their stuff. So, it is hard to say if there is a bug here or something completely different. Scott On Jan 28, 2012, at 5:42 AM, Yuma Decaux wrote: Haha, Yep they did mislabel users and groups editing buttons. The issue here is taht wgm as a server admin tool probably got discontinued since they want it all through their crashy all in one server app which i wish i would never use, but not the case.

Re: good news for Drop box users!!
The ansewr is yes. You can actually gain access to the prefs menu. You might perhaps want to uninstall your copy of Drop Box and go to the site and click the install link. that will ensure you have the version that works for you. Then, I'd open the disk image, from there, I'd focus on the Dropbox.app and open the shortcut menu. From that point, I'd click on show package contents and then click on the Mac folder. Install from that point. Sincerely, The Constantly Barefooted Ray!!! Now a very proud and happy Mac user!!!

Mini and sound source
Hi. Usually, when I plug headphones or a set of powered speakers into my Mini's headphone jack the sound goes through those sources. But this is the second time this has happened. All of a sudden the headphones/speakers I have connected do not grab the sound and the Mini is silent. If I pull the cable the Mini resumes sound through the internal sp eaker. Plug in the headphone or speakers set, silence. Not sure what the settings are that are suddenly changing and how I can change them back while the headphones/speakers are connected and the Mini is without sound. Any suggestions appreciated. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups MacVisionaries group. To post to this group, send email to macvisionaries@googlegroups.com.

Re: Lion Server
Ok, sounds like calling is a good alternative. I figured that isolating the culprit by identifying its process and deleteing the relevant plist helps a great deal each time. If you can't isolate it, you can also delete all the preferences, however that means everything would have to be reconfigured to your liking.

RE: Help with reading mail by thread in Lion. (New Lion user)
Hello Kimberly and welcome to OSX Lion. Episode 98 of the Candle Shore Podcast describes how to navigate in the Lion version of the Mail client using threaded view. After the episode, Apple updated the OS and VoiceOver's behavior changed slightly; thus, in the podcast when I state that one can use the Tab key to quickly switch between various panes, update this to using the key-combination of either Tab+Left Control or Tab+Right Command+Right Control key. That is to say, currently, one cannot reliably use only the Tab key to switch between panes. http://mark.candleshoreblog.com/2011/07/27/ep98-mark-on-osx-lion-mail-with- voiceover Click Here to go to the article containing the link to the episode.

A Question About Using The TrackPad when Navigating Text in Text Edit, Pages, etc
Hello Everyone, I am currently running the latest version of OSX Lion on my MacBook Pro. The following is from Braille page 217 of the Mac OSX Snow Leopard VoiceOver User Guide describing methods for reading text: Text: Change how VoiceOver reads text [by word, line, sentence, or paragraph) Press the Command key while touching a finger on the trackPad. Now, when I do this, VoiceOver does switch between the above stated selections; however, I cannot seem to figure out how to use the setting once it has been changed. That is to say, after hearing that sentence is selected, I attempt to navigate, by sentence, by simply single-finger swiping up, down, left, or right on the trackPad but it does not navigate by sentence. Further, after hearing that Sentence is selected, I continue to hold the Command key down while performing the above mentioned gestures to no avail. What am I doing wrong? Is this a bug? I would be happy to use the Rotor to set my choice to sentence but sentence is not an option on the Rotor. All comments welcomed.

Re: Drop Box with Voice Over
First make sure you do in fact have the latest version of drop box. The thing you need to understand is that Drop Box occurs on the menu bar, but, it's got no direct hook for Voice Over. Therefore, You need to find and click on the menu item with the mouse or track pad. This can be done after you go in to the universal menu using control+F8. From there, use VO+command+F5 to rout the mouse pointer to the VO curser. Now, if using a track pad, you might find it most helpful to place one finger at the very up right corner and move in a straight line directly left until you hear entering drop box. OF course, this assumes that you have Voice Over set so that when the mouse enters a new window, it speaks. This is what you want to happen. Now, the instent you hear entering Drop box, stop moving your finger and click the pad. This will open a menu for Drop box and the preferences menu is within this window. arrow to and press return on this option and the general preferences window will pop open. Use the tool bar to select other tabs inside here. HTH. Sincerely, The Constantly Barefooted Ray!!! Now a very proud and happy Mac user!!!

Re: A Question About Using The TrackPad when Navigating Text in Text Edit, Pages, etc
Hi there! Well I can help here! It is not clear but I found out by accident! What you have to do is keep your finger on the track pad and tap the key up and down to change the setting! But the way most people think the instruction means is to hold the key down and tap the track pad and then think it does not work! So try the other way to change settings! hth Colin On 28 Jan 2012, at 23:58, Kawal Gucukoglu wrote: This has never worked for me Mark even in Snow leopard.

Re: Drop Box with Voice Over
Hi, You lost me at the end. What toolbar are you talking about?

The thing you need to understand is that Drop Box occurs on the menu bar, but, it's got no direct hook for Voice Over. Therefore, You need to find and click on the menu item with the mouse or track pad. This can be done after you go in to the universal menu using control+F8. From there, use VO+command+F5 to rout the mouse pointer to the VO curser. Now, if using a track pad, you might find it most helpful to place one finger at the very up right corner and move in a straight line directly left until you hear entering drop box. OF course, this assumes that you have Voice Over set so that when the mouse enters a new window, it speaks. This is what you want to happen. Now, the instent you hear entering Drop box, stop moving your finger and click the pad. This will open a menu for Drop box and the preferences menu is within this window. arrow to and press return on this option and the general preferences window will pop open.

Re: Lion Server
Well actually, if you tried it on a system that's been running for a while, you'll see that a lot of little things fix themselves and the speed is relatively increased. Downside being restoring all the preferences to your like, especially voice over prefs which to me are the majority. Also, any licensed application you might have baught requires re entering the license key. In the event though that you might end up in a chinese head twister, don't try to fix it, blow it off and restart fresh. To make the process less painful, you can save the important preferences provided they aren't corrupt and restore them after wipeout and reboot. Your preferences are on two folders on the system: /Library/Preferences/ And ~/Library/Preferences including the byhost folder. So say you backup com.apple.voiceover.plist and some others you might want to keep and it's all good. Once reloaded, license keys entered etc, which can be done via keeping the plists of the with the important difference that all your keychains, network prefs, mail accounts, itunes etc are all kept safely as they were beforehand. Except said applications, the system is running just as if it was deployed brand new from a netboot image. A do shell script to facilitate the backing up and restoring is easy to write, you just need to know and isolate those plists that you want backed up and voilà.

Hi, If you go to the app store, search for river, it wil be the second or third choice. I would tell you how much it cost, but when I went to look to see, of course it wouldn't tell me, as I'd already bought it. It might have been free, but a quick peek in the app store will soon answer your question. I'm still getting used to it, but it is pretty good, The only thing I don't like about it is that you can only use a few translations. I wish I could even buy more or something. Enjoy!
